Routledge Education and Extremisms - Rethinking Liberal Pedagogies

Education and Extremisms by Routledge addresses one of the most pressing questions facing societies today: how is education to respond to the challenge of extremism? This volume offers a deep look into why standard solutions often fall short in educational establishments across the world. The text argues that simple implementations of new teaching techniques, curricular reforms, or top-down changes to education policy are not enough to solve the problem of extremism. Instead, the authors suggest a need to rethink the relationship between the instrumentalist ideologies that shape modern education and the multiple forms of extremism currently present in our world. This thought-provoking book is designed for those concerned with radicalization and the complex role of pedagogy in contemporary society. It provides a necessary perspective on how educational systems can move beyond surface-level changes to address the root causes of extremist challenges.
